Fall into the Summer

I can’t believe today is the first day of Fall. Literally, can’t believe it…it’s still hot and summery here in SoCal!

There’s seriously only one way to tell Fall has arrived, and that’s billboards for the latest TV lineup…EVERYWHERE!

Honestly, I think most people disagree, but I am seriously so much happier with my one week of snow and winter when I head back East and faux seasons the rest of the year (think, fake snow at The Grove on weekends). I definitely get seasonal depression even when the sky is just gloomy, so I am 100% all about the California sunshine. If I have to give up raking leaves for palms, so be it! I know, y’all think I’m nuts. But really?!

Love.

I had a raging appetite today and enjoyed lots of quick, simple comfort foods!

Lean Cuisine Pizza

Broccoli

Veggies with balsamic and basil

Whole wheat elbow pasta and TJ eggplant

Don’t get me wrong, I am super psyched for pumpkin, squash, Christmas shopping, holiday parties, cookie baking, warm blankets and socks, and all that jazz. But I want to hold onto summer as long as I can!!

Do you love your city’s weather??

Sorry, Kate, CA weather is driving me crazy these days. I can’t wait for it to get cooler. It DOES get cooler, but then suddenly it’s mad-hot again! I DO love the sunny weather though! I HATE rain! And gloomy dark clouds!

I live in Atlantic Canada, it can be pretty brutal!!! I get the seasonal blues too, but I don’t think I’d like a place that’s hot all the time. I DO like the snow, maybe just not as much as we get here! Winter seems never ending. Even New York has about a month’s less of winter than we do!

I get seasonal depression too, and I would really like it if it was sunny all the time. However, I don’t think I could live without fall!!! This is my favorite time of the year here in Columbus, and I would miss it if it was gone. The colors are beautiful and the weather is perfectly crisp. It’s great. The winter, on the other hand, I wouldn’t mind if it disappeared! Nick loves it. He’s crazy.

Um, yum to everything!! I love Michigan from about May until December. January through April blows sometimes – the nitty, gritty of winter hits then and there aren’t any seasonal holidays to get me through it.

Um I DEFINITELY wish I had hot weather like the weather YOU have!! I agree that summer should stay longer, especially since Chicago freakin didn’t even have a real summer. It lasted about 2 weekends and then it changed its mind. *sigh* Lucky I don’t mind fall in Chicago! Just NOT winter. boo. California is gorgeous…thanks for sharing those bootiful pictures!!! (I welcome fall shows though. hehehe)

I miss your pics of Cali! Thanks for posting them! And I agree with you – one week of snow and cold when you head back East is much better than having it for something like 6 months 🙂 And that pizza looked so good for Lean Cuisine. Now, I’m in the mood for pizza…

Seriously, Philly is just so damn gray and rainy. It’s no wonder everyone is so pissed off around here, lol 🙂 I have a problem with the seasonal blues as well…I’d LOVE TO LIVE in Cali! I’d have no problem at all with warm and sunny weather year round. And my family lives in Florida and California…go figure I’d end up here 😉

I hate Minnesota weather! Last year I was in Cali over winter break, for New Years and such, and I love the decorated palm trees and everything else! I so didn’t miss the snow one bit–and the temps still rocked compared to 30 below here!

ahh beautiful pics of socal! I am in the northeast (boston) so the colors here are starting to turn and its looking more and more like fall everyday! i always throw on balsamic on my veggies, they taste sweet and delish!!
